Chestnut Ring Katana
Chestnut Ring Katana
The Chestnut Ring Katana takes a quieter route, pairing a chestnut saya and natural-wood tsuka with dark iron fittings. Its torsion-pattern steel gives the blade a subtle surface movement rather than a bright decorative finish.
The natural wood and iron combination gives this design a quieter character than a red-and-gold mount. The two materials establish its own visual identity.
